The Star: Being Punjabi myself, and understanding the needs of our community, I think this idea is a great way to spread the game:

"Hockey Night in Canada's weekly Punjabi broadcast started in October when the CBC, picking up on a brief experiment from last season's Stanley Cup, brought Parminder Singh of Toronto and Calgary's Harnarayan Singh to call the game online and on some channels.

It has been so well received in the Punjabi community that Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment is considering Punjabi broadcasts of Leafs games two to three times a week, and even the Raptors."

English isn't my first language so I too enjoy watching a hockey game in my native tongue ... it just feels more natural that way. Feels like I'm back home in India, only on ice.
